An Invitation to Join a Falmouth Soto Zen Sangha Experiment!

For some time now, I have been pondering, how we might extend some of the better features of our Tuesday night service to an online format. So, I invite you to join me in an experiment called, drum roll please… Zen Online Wednesday.

Why?

To give people who may not be able join us in person, a taste of our Zen sangha / community

Because there is more than one-way to explore The Way.

What?

An event anyone may join via their computer or cellphone.

Who?

Anyone with access to the Internet by phone, tablet, or computer, so invite friends.

Those who come to Sangha on Tuesday may also join-in on Wednesday as well

How?

We will use a free app called Zoom.

You simply plug in an address I send you into your digital device you do not need to download the app. You email me to get the URL address and click it at 7PM/ET on Wednesday

This is a clear video and audio connection

When?

Wednesday nights from 7:00-7:50 PM Eastern Time
